Hi,
I'm trying to install a custom boot animation and I cant seem to find the /system/media directory. There is a media folder in the Internal Phone Storage directory but there isn't a bootanimation.zip in there. Am I looking in the wrong place? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I finished rooting my Nook Tablet and started copying over files to the /data/media directory. However, none of my music shows up in any of my apps. Why not?
well it does not allow you to copy for some reason
(at least for me)
it just crashes and when i go and see it , it not there.
^(probably did not help, but...)
did you change permissions after copying files?
hey you live in Souther California too

Yes, I gave permission to all of them. None of the files show up in any of my programs, they all say that I don't have an SD Card mounted or just won't show anything.

If you don't see the SD card just pop it out and reinsert it. That's a common thing for the NT.

Did I copy the files to the right directory? How do I get them to show up in my programs?
Edit: This is seriously bothering me now, I have 12 GB and I can't use any of it because none of those files will show up in ANY of my picture/video/music apps. Isn't there any way to link a folder into the internal SD card so that the apps think it's on the internal SD card?
Hello,
I recently put the CM10.1 ROM on my phone. There is a 0 folder where CM and all its files are (that is not my problem) But, when I boot into clockwork, the phone sees all the original folders as well as the 0 folder. Is there a way to safely delete the old files and folders that are not associated with the 0 folder?
Navigate to /data/media in cwm and then you should see a clockworkmod folder the 0 folder and a few others but /data/media is where you want to be
You should be able to delete the old stuff just make sure its all in the 0 folder first

if you do that you will lose everything on the internal sdcard... even the /0 folder and nandroids just use a file explorer and delete the stuff
i guess what I meant to say earlier was put all the stuff in the /0 dir that you want to keep and delete everything else BUT the /0 folder

any file manager will work
can you take a screenshot and upload it here cause im not really getting what you are saying...
in the file manager it usually opens to the root directory "/" then you click on data then media
so you should be in /data/media
inside /data/media/ is what is known as the internal storage which if you flashed a cm10.1 rom will show the
/0 and then all of the rest of the folders that would normally be on the sdcard of the phone like the Downloads Pics music movies etc...
and when the cm10.1 rom got flashed it should have moved all of thoes folders into the /0 directory... so now everything should be in /data/media/0/(sdcard contents here)...
you can either flash back to a sense rom and take the files that were in the /0 directory and move them back to the /media directory and then delete the empty /0 dir or stay on cm10.1

Alright, I was running the stock sense rooted. When I flashed to CM, it left all of the files and folders from sense on /sdcard. CM is in /sdcard/0. For some reason, cwm can see the files and folders left over from sense. I can even flash them. But, when I try to use a type of file manager, it cannot go up any higher that /0. Windows and Mac also cannot see anything up from /0.
Hopefully that clarified my problem.
I was wondering what the Hell was up with this 0 file I've been using ES file explorer and can cut/copy files i recently went back to viper dna....ok so, if I paste all the files back can I DELETE the whole "0" file? Cause that **** annoying all my pictures are not coming up as they should when I go to gallery really annoying and I think I might have lost several pictures

Its a 4.2 multi user thing, its been covered a bunch of times. If you go back to 4.1 you can move your stuff out of 0 then delete it. Its the main reason I've been on 4.2 since call audio worked, I got tired of moving stuff back and forth.

You guys can run some commands to solve this problem.

Of course if using CWM you would change the path to match your directory location.
Hi,
On my DNA after installing a new Rom and copying some files around on my SD card, the files are now no longer visible using a file manager on the phone or when attached via USB to computer. But, I CAN see the files using the file manager built into TWRP. Any idea how I can make these files visible again from within Android? Is this a permissions issue?
Thank
Did u recently flash a 4.2.2 Rom? If so ur files are now under sd card, 0 file

You wont be able to see it. Its on the internal SD.
If you are copying data files over i.e. a game or application data then its best to copy the files onto your external, then using your android file manager copy it over to your internal sd card... root directory:
android/obb
Greetings to everybody,
I would like to know where my LIB files (from lib folder from some app) are going when I move that app from sd card to internal memory.
Lets say I have XXXX app and i move that app on sd card, then im my root "/mnt/asec/XXXX/LIB/" I got those LIB files. But when I move that app from sd card to internal memory from settings I really can't find those LIB files.
*Tried to search those files with "Search" from Root Browser, was waiting 1 hour and still didn t find anything but the searching was keep going on..
Can someone tell me what is happening with lib files when i move an app from sd to internal?
Best Regards
